now we face big questions on spending and another so-called crisis moment with the next debt ceiling vote. let's start with the debt ceiling. president says he's not going to negotiate. so how far will house republicans push on this vote to try to leverage spending cuts? >> i think they're going push pretty far. you know, as the conservative "wall street journal" editorialized yesterday, "the wall street journal" giving house with republicans some advice, they said don't take a hostage you aren't prepared to shoot. and i think that that's the view among a lot of republicans in the house that they're not going to take this hostage, the debt ceiling, unless they're prepared to hit it. and remember last time we went through this, there were quite a few republicans who actually argued that it would be okay to hit the debt ceiling, that it wouldn't be as catastrophic as the white house and the treasury department and most economists believe. so i think it's -- i think it's very real, and when you have a senator like john cornyn threatening to shut the government down, we're in for a prett

last month after the white house and congress worked out a plan on the debt ceiling plan, a poll found americans think that they acted like spoiled children. when they downgraded the credit rating they took issue with the fighting in washington saying the political brinksmanship of the recent months highlights what we see as america's governance and policy making becoming less stable and less selective than what we previously believed. our opinion is that elected officials remain wary of tackling the structural issues required to effectively address the rising u.s. public debt burden. let's talk about it now. joining us are chief white house correspondent jessica yellin down at the united nations in new york where the president was earlier today. all that talk about compromise from the president, why the shift in position now? >> well, after the debt deal failed, anderson, the president and his aides became convinced that the republicans are just determined to block him at every turn and deny him any victories. this is a switch of gears in an effort to define what the president stands
